Maybe, i should just "google it", but i'll ask here. hopefully you can point me in the right direction.

i'm in my 50's and have only started drinking in the last couple years. grew up in a non-drinking family and i've only found this to be of any interest now that my kids are older and my career is winding down.

so ... i make a margareta and a basic amaretto sour ... and that's about it. i'd like to expand my repertoire, but i don't know where to start. i'm not a 'bar person', so i don't have anyone to make drinks for me. so, i'm asking here ...

i have no interest in getting drunk or in strong drinks. i've tried, but not enjoyed, whiskey, martini, etc. maybe my taste buds will 'grow up' eventually? :)

i like the above mentioned margareta and amaretto sour because they are a bit sweet, they are over ice, and i can sip one for an hour or two while i read or work.

any suggestions?

Ya gotta read between the lines.

OP doesn't want to get drunk. Kinda sounds like he doesn't like the burn of high proof liquor. Sounds like he doesn't want anything astringent or bitter, and he does like thing that are sweet and fruit forward.

But he wants something that takes a little time to make. Something he can make for himself, or others, so show that he took some teffort to make something special.

Nigga wants a Pimm's Cup.

The perfect Sunday morning alternative to a momosa.
